Knesset member Gadi Eizenkot spoke with the families of the hostages who came to the Knesset to protest against the government for delaying a deal that would release their loved ones. Eizenkot told the family members that "there is one person who makes this decision, and he needs to change his mind and accept Netanyahu's plan." Hinting at Prime Minister Netanyahu.

According to Eizenkot: "This is the right way for the State of Israel to bring back the captives and promote the arrangement in the Gaza Strip. There should have been an arrangement in Gaza before Lebanon. It could have been months earlier. Every day that passes is an immediate life-threatening danger. We need a few more Knesset members who are honest and patriotic."
